I like this idea. In general clear rephrasings are simply their own
claims; a good rephrasing may be pointed to as a "common claim" implied by
many other statements; a statement may imply a number of rephrasings; the
link between a primary-source statement and a common rephrasing is itself a
claim; most of these links will be uncontroversial but for some that link
itself is the locus of debate. [see especially: discourse analysis in
theology]

Hello. The following ideas about URL-addressable
statements and clusters
of statements (e.g. paraphrase sets or clusters) are relevant to a recent Wikifact
project proposal <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikifact>, could be
relevant to a recent Wikipragmatica project proposal
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipragmatica>, and, hopefully, are
relevant and interesting to Wikidata and Abstract Wikipedia.
Each statement, claim, or fact could have a URL. Each cluster of
paraphrases could have a URL.
Statements, claims, or facts could have URL’s, for instance
https://www.wikifact.org/statements/33DCF305-3A4D-4024-9AD7-CCB1A29054E2 .
Clusters of paraphrases could have URL’s, for instance
https://www.wikifact.org/clusters/D006871E-24A6-428F-BD1F-D20C3C7B7685 .
The URL for an individual statement, claim, or fact could, while
optionally providing data, redirect to a URL for the paraphrase cluster
which contains it. This could convenience processes of semi-automated,
collaborative paraphrasing. That is, in the event of an erroneous
paraphrasing, editors or software tools could edit a redirect page to
re-cluster the individual statement, claim, or fact to an updated cluster
of paraphrases. At the URL for a paraphrase cluster could be a
human-editable sequence of explained annotations about a statement, claim,
or fact.
The emergent feature of URL-addressability could convenience Web-based
communication about statements, claims, and facts. End-users would be able
to share hyperlinks to fact-checking articles about individual statements,
claims, or facts. This could facilitate a number of other, related
technologies.
Also interestingly, statement patterns could be expressed and these
patterns could be utilized via URL query strings. Nouns or noun phrases
could be provided as arguments. That is, arguments for thematic relations
could be provided utilizing Wikidata lexemes and entities.

could represent a set of statements expressing that “Douglas Adams ate an
apple.”
